Alpha emitters are the latest trend in the hot radioligand space, but there’s debate about which isotope offers the best attributes for optimizing safety and efficacy.

They also discuss Editor-in-Chief Simone Fishburn’s conversation with Susan Galbraith, EVP of Oncology R&D at AstraZeneca, the latest innovations in delivering lipid nanoparticles to specific tissues beyond the liver, and the most recent oral GLP-1 obesity data from Roche.
